"As we were staying there for some days" Paul had been hurrying to be at Jerusalem by Pentecost (Acts 20:16). This purpose has not been abandoned, but rather Paul may have arrived in Judea sooner than he had expected, and thus can spend some time with Philip. "A prophet named Agabus came down from Judea" This appears to be the same prophet mentioned in Acts 11:28.
